Swift has a lot to be thankful for too, now that in addition to Lover already becoming the best-selling album of 2019, the album is now at the top of the Billboard Hot 200 chart, and Swift is now the only woman with six albums that have sold over 500,000 copies in a single week (Lover sold 679,000 copies).
